I think Christine and Mary may be the sisters of my ggrandfather Henry Mendosa Eugene (fabricated name, etc.) By 1880 they were both married, living in Alameda. Thank you, Betty

RC, Thanks for looking. I am very surprised you didn't find it, but at the same I am not surprised as well. This family is incredibly difficult to research! She died in Nevada, but was from SF area, and so her body was moved to the coast for burial. Not a single obit mentioned where exactly she was buried (and there were obits in Nevada, Hawaii and presumably California. I found something which mentioned IOOF Cemetery, and so I asked my question here on the list. I thank you for helping me, and I shall keep digging! Kim Golding Tacoma, WA Kim........

Betty, In 1870 she likely attended Capital Grammar which was abt 10th & O st. The 6th and S street address I have to think about. However, if you are going to be in the Library, check out the front of the City Directory under Education. They gave the location of the Schools. Sacramento Grammar was at abt 7th & G but that is rather far from S st. I'm thinking it was a numbered Primary School. Grammar Schools were like our liberal arts programs. Primary or Common School was more like a vocational school. ________________________________ From: Betty Loose <betty@unisette.com> To: norcal@rootsweb.com Sent: Tue, March 30, 2010 2:54:48 PM Subject: [NORCAL] 1870 Sac schools My ggrandmother, Hattie Estelle Graves, lived in Sacramento and I am wondering what school, if any, she may have attended.

My mother had a cousin Lucille Clark that married a Bacque. She died in the early 1930s. If there is a connection, I do have the names of her descendants in Northern CA. They might be able to help you. Marciel Hart Wood in San Diego

I am asking for assistance reading a census image I found 2 days ago. This seems to be a breakthrough in one of my lines. The family is in the 1880 census for HotSprings Twp, St. Helena, Napa Co.: Wallopia(Guadalupe) ROMERO age:36/56? Farmer Can't read birth areas Ramona(?) 40 Wadalope(Guadalupe) 13 CA ? ? ?(starts with T?) female 10 Refugia(?) female 3 Helena female 1 (listed as sickly/deformed) Wilson ? 38 Nephew b.Sonora f.Sonora m.Sonora I believe the daughter is my missing Guadalupe who may have been married 3 times as it turns out since the names she has been known by were first TORRES, then married John BACQUE, then Patrick HIGUERA. I found a naturalization for her father(also)Guadalupe ROMERO which led to this census for 1880. I can't locate them in 1870 and found the father in 1900 in Napa with a wife Maria and daughter Helena. Thanks for the help, Margaret

The Daily Union Sacramento, Cal. Saturday, September 18, 1852 THE FAIR - We are requested to say that the Ladiesí Fair at the new brick church, corner L and Seventh streets, will close This Evening. The doors will be opened at 7 o'clock, and all articles remaining unsold at 9 o'clock, will be sold at auction. SECOND WARD SCOTT CLUB - The Whigs of the Second Ward will assemble This Evening at the Crescent City Hotel, to complete their organization of a Scott and Graham Club. A full and punctual attendance is earnestly solicited. MILITARY FUNERAL - The solemn rites of a military burial were performed yesterday afternoon, over the body of Thomas COLLINS. The Governorís Guard, with muffled drum and shrouded banners, accompanied his remains to the grave, the deceased having been a member of that military corps. THE WEATHER - After three or four days of cool and invigorating weather, we had a decided change yesterday, the mercury in the afterpart of the day standing at 90 in the shade. OWING to the few State papers received by the steamer Pacific, we have compiled most of our news from the San Francisco journals. THE LADIES' SEWING CIRCLE of the Episcopal Society, will assemble at the residence of Mrs. GRIFFITH on J street, at 8 oíclock, this afternoon. THANKS - ADAMS & Co. first delivered our San Francisco exchange papers. GREGORY, on the arrival of the Confidence, furnished us with files of Eastern papers, including London journals of late date. THE HENRY CLAY CLAMITY - All the officers and men on board the Henry Clay, who were in any way the cause of the recent disaster, have been arrested and liberated on procuring bail on the amount of $10,000 each. The 24th instant has been fixed for the hearing of the accused parties. This has been done at the request of the officers themselves, but it is probable there will be a longer delay, as there is at present no Grand Jury, and the United States Court will not open until the first Tuesday in September. It is said that the District Attorney of Westchester county will not take any action in the matter, but will leave the entire prosecution to the U.S. Court. The Supreme Court of Maine has decided that people may keep and use liquor for private purposes, and that it may be brought in and transported through the State. A dispatch from Boston states that the English steamship Devastation has taken four American prizes into Charlottetown, and that about one hundred French fishermen have been driven away from Belle Isle. It is said that a challenge has passed between Messrs. BAYLEY, of Va, and PHELPS, of Mo., on account of some words used in a debate in the House of Representatives upon the Navy appropriation Bill. Accounts from Labrador, state that the ship Charles, and a portion of the crew of the ship Sappho, had driven twenty-nine French bateaux and one hundred Frenchmen, off Belle Isle, so that they did not get a single fish. The town of Helena, Ark., was almost entirely consumed by fire on the 9th of August. Only two houses left. Loss estimated at $100,000. Lieut. Alvarado HUNTER has been restored to his command in the navy. The Naval Court Martial at Norfolk has dismissed commander Paine from the command of the sloop-of-war Cyano. Commodore PERRY, of the steam frigate Mississippi, met with a warm reception at St. Johnís. He intends proceeding to Halifax, and probably to Newfoundland, and return to New York about the 1st of September. An amendment to the appropriation bill for the appropriation of $20,000 for the purpose of testing the use of camels on the Plains, had been made. Extensive fires have destroyed vast amounts of property in West Troy. Loss estimated at $150,000. The St. John papers say that the British Government had taken the fishery question out of Mr. CRAMPTONís hands, and would stand by the colonies. In Washington, it is said, that the prospect for an early and amicable adjustment of the question heightens, and that no misunderstanding had occurred between Mr. WEBSTER and the President. Four ships sailed from New York recently for the Australian gold mines with 636 passengers. Five others were shortly to leave that port for the same destination. The bark Onile has been purchased at Baltimore for the erection of lighthouses on the Pacific coast. [Advertisement] LIVERY STABLE - FROST & Co., have recently opened a large stable on Second street, near the corner of I. The location is an excellent one for business, and they hope to receive a fair share of public patronage. They have spared no expenses in procuring excellent horses and carriages, which will be let at all hours, and on the most reasonable terms. MARRIED In Marysville, September 14th, by Rev.

DIED In this city, September 16th, Alfred CURRY, formerly of West Chester, Pa., aged about 25 years. In Nevada city, September 16th, of inflammation of the bowels, E.L. GARRASON, formerly of Rome, Georgia, aged 25 years.

The Daily Union Sacramento, Cal. Thursday, September 17, 1852 HORRIBLE ACCIDENT - A miner, named George Curtis, engaged in working in a ravine near the Pilot Hills, in El Dorado county, met with an awful accident on Saturday evening last, while on his way to one of the Bars on the North Fork. He left his tent about dusk in company with a friend for the purpose of purchasing provisions. Before they had reached the brow of the hill, above the river, it had become dark, and the two soon after lost their way and became separated. The companion of CURTIS after halloing a long time in vain, proceeded on to the store expecting to meet him there. In this he was disappointed, and compelled to return to his tent, but he found that also deserted. Early on Sunday morning he started in search of him, and to his horror found his mutilated remains at the bottom of Rocky Canon, a precipitous gorge running from the brow of the hill down to the river. The perpendicular depth of the ravine at the point where CURTIS fell, is not less than one hundred and fifty feet. The unfortunate man who undoubtedly in the darkness stepped off the brink, must have instantly been dashed to pieces, as his body was found awfully mangled and filled with sharp pointed stones. The deceased had been in California for some ten months, residing during the greater portion of the time in Nevada. He was a native of Essex county, N.Y., and about twenty-two years of age. The Times and Transcript is terribly nettled, because the Whig nomination for Judge of the Supreme Court has been tendered to Mr. CHETWOOD. It states that his nomination was brought out by five or six men in San Francisco, and that the Whig State Convention refused to support him for this important office. We would refer the forgetful editors to the proceedings of the convention, where they will find that Mr. C. was supported by delegates from every portion of the State, and that it was not until after a number of ballots that his friends were induced to give in their adhesion to another candidate. We can inform the Times and Transcript that Mr. CHETWOOD is now "brought out" by the whole Whig party, and will not only be supported, but elected by them in November next. Special Correspondence. Change of Weather - Whig Mass Meeting - Slanders of the Times and Transcript - Oregon News - Murder - The Alleghanians - Presentation of a Whig Banner SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 14 We have experienced a most decided change in the weather; the hot sulphurous atmosphere of Friday and Saturday, has given way to the cool and bracing winds indigenous to our hilly city, and notwithstanding they kick up considerable of a dust, yet at the same time they are are acceptable. It is understood that the grand Mass Whig meeting, to be held in your city early next month, will be held for three days, the 7th, 8th and 9th days of the month. There is no doubt that a large delegation from this city will respond to the call of the State Central Committee, which will be made public to-morrow, or next day. The Times and Transcript, feeling sensibly the comparison that has been brought to bear them its candidates by the nomination of CHETWOOD to the Supreme Bench, has commenced a series of slanderous attacks upon that gentleman. As far as the two parties are concerned, the Whigs stand very much in the position of "Catharine Market Joe," in the play of "A Glance at New York," they have been so abused, falsified, vilified, and misrepresented by Democratic cliques and journals, that they have become perfectly callous, therefore gentlemen of the Democratic party "kick away." The steamer Isthmus arrived last evening from Oregon, bringing ten days later news, which however is not important. Considerable sickness is being experienced by the emigration coming into the territory. ADAMS & Co. are building a very fine edifice of brick, at Portland, for a banking house. The Isthmus had bad weather on her upward trip, having been eight days on the passage. A brutal murder was committed in this city yesterday, in a place known as Pleasant Valley - the parties being Mexican. The murdered man received twelve terrible stabs from his antagonist. His name is unknown. A WEALTHY COMPANY - We understand that the amount of taxes paid into the treasury of Solano county, by the Pacific Mail steamship company, is sufficient to defray all the expenses of said county. The assessed value of their property in Benicia, including the vessels in port, amount to $1,300,000. MARRIED In this city, on Wednesday morning, Sept. 15th, 1852, of the typhoid fever, Mr. Samuel FERGUSON, formerly of Johnstown, Felton county, N.Y. In this city, on Tuesday, 14th inst., by the Rev. Mr. BENTON, Mr. D.F. BATCHELDER to Miss Elise STRICKER, both of Placerville, El Dorado county. DIED On Saturday night last of cholera, at Dr. GRATTONís private hospital, Stockton, Jeanette GRATTON, the wife of Dr. GRATTON. This lady was universally esteemed in this community for her rare christian virtues and charities, and her loss will be sincerely lamented in the circle of friends she had drawn around her.

Hanford Journal Hanford, Kings Co., California Tuesday, 18 FEBRUARY 1896 ************************************ MARRIAGE -- FULLER-McCAFFREY -- At the residence of the bride's mother, in Hanford, Cal., Friday evening, Feb. 14, 1895, by A.G. PARK; Chas. W. FULLER and Miss Sohpie McCAFFREY. [The wedding took place at 7:30 o'clock, in the presence of a number of relatives and friends. After the ceremony an elaborate wedding supper was served. The bride and groom both have many friends here who wish them long life and prosperity.] MARRIAGE -- KURTZ-YELKIN -- Near Lemoore, on Sunday forenoon, Feb. 16, 1896, by Justice Bullard; Frank B. KURTZ and Miss Rachel E. YELKIN. [A description of this wedding has been received, but too late to be inserted in this issue of the 'Journal,' but will appear in that of next Tuesday.] LOST -- In Hanford, last Saturday afternoon, 2 capes, one of black beaver, beaded, the other a black cape of ladies cloth, pinked. Finder please leave same at 'Journal' office. Mrs. H.L. PARKER ------------------------------------------------------ THE INDICTED MEN -- Are Now Out on Bail -- The Charges Against Them -- Robert F. POTTER was indicted on a charge of marking a calf belonging to Monroe DAGGS, with intent to steal the same. He was arrested on Saturday and in default of $500 bail was taken to jail, where he remained until yesterday afternoon, when bail was furnished by J.H. MURRAY and Henry NAGLE of Cross Creek. POTTER was raised near Visalia and has always borne a good reputation, and people here, who know him, find it hard to believe him guilty of the crime and will not believe so until he is proven guilty. William CRAWFORD, of Grangeville, the other man indicted, has 2 charges against him, 1 of defacing the marks of a hog belonging to Nes HANSEN, with the intent of stealing the same, and the other of perjury, alleged to have been committed in giving testimony in which he was defendant in a suit brought by J.D. BOZEMAN for the recovery of 11 brood sows which CRAWFORD swore he bought and BOZEMAN claimed were let to CRAWFORD on shares. CRAWFORD was also arrested on Saturday, but gave bonds - $200 on 1 charge and $500 on the other - for his appearance in court. Both men were taken into court yesterday morning to plead. POTTER had no attorney and Horace L. SMITH represented CRAWFORD. They were granted further time, until next Thursday, to plead. Rowen IRWIN has been employed to defend POTTER. ----------------------------------------------------- A MEXICAN DESPERADO -- On Monday last a Mexican known as DOMINGO, residing near Porter MICKLE's old slaughter house, had a set of harness stolen. DOMINGO notified Constable BERNSTEIN of the fact on Tuesday morning, and together the 2 men traced the thieves to their home east of Traver. The harness was found near a hay stack and recovered. Mr. BERNSTEIN then went to the house to find his man, who when called to came to the door of the dwelling with a Winchester rifle in his hand and told the officer and his companion to get out or he would kill them. As the man had the drop on the officer discretion was considered the better part of valor, and the 2 men left. Constable BERNSTEIN then went to Hanford for reinforcements, and a party of officers visited the home of the thief, but he had flown. ------------------------------------------------------ LOCAL PARAGRAPHS -- -Jacob VINEY is now employed as bookkeeper in Louis NATHAN's office. -John CLANTON is now employed in the dry goods department of the Kutner-Goldstein Co. -The many friends of Miss Alice ROOT will be pleased to know that she has so far recovered from her recent severe illness as to permit her to resume her school. -Mrs. D.

The team they were driving attached to a spring wagon ran away into a wire fence. KOWALSKY got a bad cut on the leg and hand and has to go on crutches. Mr. SMITH was knocked senseless and was confined to his bed for several days, but is able to be out again. The farm hand escaped unhurt, as did also the team. ------------------------------------------------------- GRANGEVILLE -- -Charlie ROBINSON, who sprained his knee several weeks ago, is having a very serious time with it and is still only able to get about with 2 crutches. -Mrs. Stant BROWN sent recently for 2 thoroughbred Plymouth Rock roosters. She has now a splendid strain of fowls and sells the eggs to the neighbors at a very reasonable price. -Elsworth AWALT was over from Wheatville last Sunday. He left for home again the same day, but his father and mother, who accompanied him, are still staying with their daughter, Mrs. AGEE. -Walter RAILSBACK and his friend, Mr. SCOTT, arrived here last Wednesday on a tandem bike form Santa Cruz.

BECOME are doing the pruning for John WYRUCK. -Melvin HITCHCOCK, on the S.H. STICKELS place, has been shipping hay to Los Angeles this last week. -C.W. IRWIN has been employed as foreman on O.C. BROWN's ranch. He and his family have moved onto the place. -Last Monday forenoon, while S.M. SCUHMAKE was driving a span of large mules, attached to a spade harrow, on the Silver Bow vineyard, the mules became frightened and started to run. Mr. S. was dragged over and under the harrow and was for a short time in a most dangerous position. But he finally succeeded in extricating himself from beneath the harrow and escaped with a number of severe cuts on his legs, the worst being a cut just above and back of the heel. -Last Wednesday, when Mrs. Dr. HAMLIN of Lemoore was driving to Hanford and was near the Chinaman's garden east of J.M. DAGGS', her horse took fright at some cattle in DAGGS' pasture and turned sharp about with the buggy, throwing her out. She lay in the road some little time, until Mrs. Rev. BLACK and another lady drove up in a cart. They were doing what they could for her when J.H. FLEENOR and Mr. PRICE came along. Mrs. HAMLIN was then helped into Mr. FLEENOR's buggy and brought to his house in Armona and Dr. HAMLIN was telephoned to. LEMOORE LOCALS -- -On Thursday of this week F.B.

Birthplace is listed as "Cal" for all the Romero's. Can't figure out the first name of the Wilson nephew. Name begins with J and ends with "in." Almost looks like Josephin if that makes sense. ----- Original Message ----- From: <toolelips@charter.net> To: <norcal@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, March 30, 2010 8:55 AM Subject: [NORCAL] NORCAL>Guadalupe ROMERO>Napa>1880 > > I am asking for assistance reading a census image I found 2 days ago. > This seems to be a breakthrough in one of my lines.

On Ancestry's copy, the daughter in question looks like "Lourdes" and her age is listed as 11 or 12. The census taker wrote one and then overwrote the other. You can tell it's a 2 because of the tail on the number. A 0 doesn't have a bottom tail. ----- Original Message ----- From: <toolelips@charter.net> To: <norcal@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, March 30, 2010 8:55 AM Subject: [NORCAL] NORCAL>Guadalupe ROMERO>Napa>1880 > > I am asking for assistance reading a census image I found 2 days ago. > This seems to be a breakthrough in one of my lines.

The Daily Union Sacramento, Cal. Wednesday morning, September 15, 1852 MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT - On Monday night, as the steamer Jack Hays was coming through Suisun Bay, on her way to this city, when opposite New York, Capt. William SMITH, the pilot, accidentally fell overboard and was drowned. Mr. SMITH has been a pilot on the river for the last two years; was formerly from Massachusetts, and aged about 40 years. His body has not yet been recovered. REAL ESTATE - J.B. STARR will have on Monday, Sept. 20th, at the Orleans House, one of the largest real estate sales of the season. It is his intention to get out the catalogues this evening, and parties wishing property inserted in the catalogue, are requested to send a memorandum of the same to his office. We have noticed the real estate sales made by Mr. STARR have given general satisfaction, and parties purchasing on Monday next, may rest assured of getting good titles and desirable property. We have received a communication from the Justice of the Peace for Colusa with reference to the case of Bernard and Willis. As the subject matter referred to has been disposed of long since, we must beg to be excused from lending our columns to the publication of statements which may provoke and prolong a discussion. CATTLE FROM THE PLAINS - We noticed on yesterday a team consisting of thirty-three head of oxen, drawing an emigrant wagon through J street. This long train was made up mainly of cattle just in from the plains. They had been purchased by one of the ranch owners of Napa, and are by this time quietly browsing on the rich herbage of that lovely valley. Sonora The Herald, of Saturday last, just received. The following additional improvements are chronicled in that town by the Herald: Since last we chronicled the improvements in the course of erection, Messrs. BOYER and PATRICK have far advanced in the completion of a handsome and auspicious two-story building upon their old lot. Its roof is of an octagonal form, and the building will, when finished, be the largest and finest frame store in Sonora. On the opposite corner of Main street, Mr. ____ has completed another splendid store, of the same description as the one last mentioned, though somewhat smaller. Mr. B. FORD has nearly completed his one adobe and brick building, next door to his old stand. It is one of the best houses of the kind in Sonora. Dr. GUNN has nearly completed the cellar and basement of his new stone building. The front is of hewn white marble, and makes a most handsome appearance. He intends to add yet another story to it. We notice another adobe going up, to connect the building of Messrs. THEALL, PERKINS & Co., with that of Mr. J. HUNTINGTON. When this is published it will complete a range of five fire-proof adobes, owned by those gentlemen, and constituting the most extensive improvement in this city. The El Dorado has been completed and handsomely fitted up as a respectable family hotel, a great desideratum in Sonora. It will soon be opened for that purpose - the saloon has been open for a month past. Its name has been changed to that of the City Hotel. The adobe of M. LABUUREAU is nearly completed; and the handsome two- story house is going up on one side of it, while Mayor DODGE has commenced a fine large fire-proof adobe building on the other. Houses of lesser importance are going up by the dozen. FROM THE SOUTH - The steamer Sea Bird arrived below on Saturday evening, from San Diego, with a number of passengers, and a large quantity of fruit. We condense her news from the Evening Journal: Among the passengers was A.C. RUSSELL, Esq., of the Sacramento Union, upon which the vile and cowardly attempt at assassination was recently made at Los Angeles, by Wm. A. CORNWALL, private secretary to Gov. BIGLER, because Mr. RUSSELL, exercising his privilege as an American citizen, had chosen to write a political article, reflecting upon the political and official conduct of the Governor; and the which, CORNWALL fancied, applied to himself, even after Mr. RUSSELL had disavowed it to be his intention to reflect personally upon him. A full account of the affair is given in the Los Angeles Star. Society has arrived at a pretty state indeed, that a man cannot express his honest sentiments on political affairs and official conduct, without subjecting himself to the hazard of being cut down in the streets with a bowie knife for it. Mr. RUSSELL is now at the Niantie Hotel, confined to his bed by weakness occasioned by an affection of the lungs, aggravated by CORNWALL jumping upon his breast as he lay upon the ground, bleeding and helpless. THOMAS COLLINS, shot in the rencounter of Sunday evening, still lives, and last evening the symptoms of his wound assumed rather a more favorable aspect. The Times and Transcript estimates the population of San Francisco, in 1860, at 200,000. DIED Suddenly on Tuesday, September 14th, J.B. PATCH, Esq., of the banking house of McNULTY, PATCH & Co., of this city. The sudden death of Mr. PATCH will carry deep sorrow to a wide circle of kindred and friends, to whom he had endeared himself by his many manly qualities. Mr. P. was formerly connected with the banking house of Messrs. RHODES, STURGIS & McNULTY, and but recently made a visit to the States, and returned with his amiable lady and daughter in May last. Upon them this terriblebereavement falls most heavily, and the only solace that can be offered them is the deep sympathy of a large circle of friends who will ever stand ready to sustain them under every trial. Mr. PATCH was from Milford, N.H., and was 33 years of age. Sustaining a high character for integrity and business qualifications, his loss will be deeply felt in our community. His funeral will take place from his late residence, on 3d street, between M and N, this day (Wednesday) at 3 1/2 P.M. His friends and acquaintances are respectfully invited to attend. In this city, on the 13th inst, after a short illness, Hugh DAVEY, aged 38 years, formerly of Baltimore, Md. In this city, on Tuesday, September 14th, Mrs. McARTHUR, formerly of Akron, Ohio. At Staplesí Ranch, Sept. 13th, of inflammation of the bowels, Mrs. Sarah E. HARRIS, aged 23 years, consert of John HARRIS, of Galena Ill.

The Daily Union Sacramento, Cal. Tuesday, August 17, 1852 NEW PLACER - Mr. G. WOODMAN has informed us that rich diggings have been discovered about eight miles from this place, on the East side of Sacramento river. The river makes a bend to the West forming a peninsula of several thousand acres. This ground is cut up into a great many small ravines and gulches, and in some of these the gold has been discovered in large quantities. One piece weighing sixty, and another weighing forty dollars had been found. Water, however, is very scarce and the new place will not be worked much until the rainy season commences. CORONERíS INQUEST - Justice BAILEY, on the _th inst, held an inquest of Samuel B. DAGGETT, who died form the effects of a wound received at the hands of a man named McMAHON on the 27th of July last. Mr. DAGGETT died on the _th inst, and the Coronerís jury found that he was maliciously and willfully murdered by McMahon . In speaking of the tragedy at the time of is occurrence, we mentioned the inoffensive and upright character of the deceased. His age was about 38. The murdererhad not been arrested. The funeral ceremonies of Henry CLAY were observed at Shasta on the 14th inst. A service of appropriate resolutions were adopted, and remarks made by Messrs. TEVIS, SMITH, McNULTY, and St. JOHN. Sonora We are indebted to ADAMS & Co. for the Herald of Saturday, from which we extract the following items: VALLECITO, Aug. 10 - The flat opposite this camp has been found to be rich. Many miners are engaged in sinking shafts. Two holes are down, and paying from $20 to $30 to the pan of dirt. Last evening a piece weighing 8 oz. and 3 dwts, was taken from one bucket of dirt, out of a hole owned by Fredennick and Whitman. INCENDIARISM - Last Monday night, a malicious attempt at incendiarism was perpetrated beneath the basement of the Omega Saloon, in this city. The saloon being newly erected, the back of the cellar had not been closed in, and some scoundrel had piled up some shavings and pieces of dry wood, and had ignited them. When discovered, the light cast by the flames was gleaming between the planks of the floor and the Saloon. The flooring was torn up, and water applied, which soon extinguished the flames. QUARTZ MININGS - We were shown yesterday by Judge TUTTLE, some specimens of quartz rock from the Seil & Martin vein, on Bald Mountain, which has lately been reopened, and is now in full operation. The gold is plainly visible in all of them to the naked eye. Marysville From the Express of Monday, delivered by Wells, Fargo & Co.ís express messenger, we extract the following items: NEW CHURCH - A new church is now in progress of erection by the Methodist Episcopal Society of this city. It is to be built of brick, on the corner of E and Fourth streets. The dimensions are as follows: on the ground 4 x 60 feet; in height, 30 feet to the cornice. The basement is to be 10 feet in height and will be finished for school rooms. The tower and spire will have an elevation of 40 feet above the cornice. The whole cost of the work will be about $15,000. The building when finished, which will we understand be in about six weeks, will be an ornament to the city. Messrs PIXLEY are the contractors. MORE INDIAN MURDERS - We learn that towards the latter part of last week, a company of four Chinese, working near the Honest, were attacked by a party of twenty Indians, and three of them killed. The other escaped badly wounded, and gave the alarm, when a company fitted out immediately and started in pursuit. LOST OR STOLEN - A note of hand, drawn by Wm. JONES, in favor of Samuel BALL, for two hundred and seventy-four dollars fifty cents, dated July 28th, 1852. All persons are cautioned against negotiating for the note as payments has been stopped. SAMUEL BALL INFORMATION WANTED - Of Mr. SHANTEN who came out in the Sea Gull, as mate, and was last heard of a Parkís Bar. A letter addressed to T.J. STRONG, to the care of J. MORRELL, or himself in person will give all information to MARGARET SHANTEN his wife. INFORMATION - Andrew Peter BECHHOLDT of Copenhagen will please call on the subscriber, who has information of importance to communicate to him. JOSEPH FRONTIN, Clay street between Montgomery and Heidesdorff, San Francisco. Mr. and Mrs. NELSON have removed to their new saloon No. 68 J street, where they ______ a continuance of the patronage so liberally given them at the "New York Saloon" and beg leave to inform the public that no pains or expense will be spared to make this a most delightful resort for the ladies and gentlemen of Sacramento City. Ice Creams and Oysters at all hours; and the bar is provided with the choicest liquors and cigars. JUSTICESí COURT C.C. SACKETT, Justice of the Peace and Notary Public.

MYERS, Notary Public and Conveyaneer, 46 K street, attends promptly to the collection of rents, &c. GEO. W. CHESLEY, Constable, 46 K street, attends to the collection of moneys, with or without suit.

Yep, similar to when prison inmates are shown working in the prisons - they had to do something useful and help the institution at the same time. They did all the meneal chores as well as kept up the garden for veggies, anything that needed done and couldn't get the money to cover costs. It also was thought to keep their minds occupied with something other than hurting each other.

The Daily Union Sacramento, Cal Monday Morning, August 16, 1852 DARING ROBBERY - On Thursday last Mr. O.H. YOUNG, a carpenter of this city, and one of the firm of Young & Drew, left for San Francisco for his home in the east. After paying for his passage ticket, he had remaining the sum of $2200 in two bags, which he thoughtlessly placed in his coat pockets. On Saturday morning he took from one bag a fifty- dollar gold piece for the purpose of defraying his expenses across the Isthmus, and immediately afterward had it changed. In a very short time he missed both bags, some dexterous pick-pocket having abstracted them, probably, while he was getting his ìslugî changed. No traces, however, of the thief or money have yet been obtained. Mr. YOUNG, notwithstanding his loss, intended sailing in the Panama which was to have left on Sunday morning. ACCIDENT - On Saturday evening, while the Antelope was lying below the wharf at Benicia, waiting for the Confidence to push out into the stream, the Urilda came puffing and blowing up the straits, and by some unexplained manoeuvre or gross carelessness, managed to run into the stern of the Antelope, carrying away the railing, seats, etc., but doing little damage. The Urilda was also somewhat injured. NEW POST OFFICE - The Post Master General has established a new post office at Daylorís Ranch, in Sacramento county, named Cosumne Post Office, and appointed William D. WILSON post master. SERIOUS AFFRAY - ONE MAN SHOT - On Saturday morning about two o'clock, a man named James TURNER, with one or two others, entered the Diana Saloon, and called for something to drink. A dispute arose soon after between TURNER and David HARRIS, the barkeeper, as to the payment of the liquor, the latter asserting that he had not, and the former that he had paid the required sum. Some harsh words passed, until the barkeeper went to the end of the counter, got a revolver, and discharged three or four shots at TURNER, one of which took effect, the ball passing through the upper lip and lodging in the neck, from which it has not been extracted. It was stated by a witness that tumblers were hurled at the head of HARRIS by TURNER, which provoked the former to fire, and by others that no violence was offered by the latter until after HARRIS had fired. The case came up before the Recorder on Saturday, but was not decided, his Honor permitting defendant to go free until this morning, on the recognizance of Mr. WHIPLEY, the proprietor of the Diana Saloon. TURNER was removed yesterday to San Francisco, the weather here being considered unfavorable for the speedy recovery of the patient. His wound is considered serious, although not dangerous. DARING OUTRAGES NEAR SAN JOSE - A few days since, we published an account of certain young men named RHODES, having gone into the tulares to hunt for cattle, and that fears were expressed for their safety owing to their long absence. Some of the party have since returned to Daylorís Rancho, and communicated the following facts to our correspondent: DAYLORíS RANCH, Aug. 14th. Messrs. Editors: A few weeks since, George RHODES took up a pre- emption claim about thirty-five miles east of San Jose, built a house, &c. He then, accompanied by his brother Clay RHODES, his cousin Ezekiel HOUSE and two Spaniards, went a short distance into the tulares to catch wild horse and cattle to drive in on his claims. After a monthís hard labor, they got together and started for home. When they had got within fifty miles of their encampment, they were overtaken by three Americans (a portion of the band of desperados who have infested that section of the country since ë49) who, with cocked guns, compelled them to get off their horses. The boys, none of them over eighteen years of age, did so. The men then mounted their horses, took their cattle, saddles, &c., and started off. The next day, another portion of the same bandits - three men - came to RHODES' house, took all his horses and completely ransacked the house. When they were gone, RHODES called upon his neighbors (the nearest about five miles) and obtained the assistance of two men and started in pursuit. They captured them, brought them to San Escedro, and delivered them up to the Alcalde. The boys all fully identified them. They were searched and some of the stolen articles found upon them. They were captured with the horses in their possession. In spite of all this, the Alcalde acquitted them. This man is the Alcalde of a place called San Escedro. His name is Abner. His surname the boys cannot recollect. W.R.G.
